Capclave

Peter Heck gives a discussion of the problems and techniques of book reviewing, with an emphasis on reviewing of SF, fantasy and related genres. Participants may bring a short review (under 500 words) of a recent book for group discussion. In addition to consideration of specific reviews, the workshop will focus on ways to write an effective and useful review, the relation of reviewing and criticism, and the requirements of different audiences. Limited to 12 participants.

There is no charge for the workshop, however, you do have to registered for Capclave in order to attend. Check out the Capclave website for registration information. Check at the Registration Desk at the Convention to see if there is room in the workshop.

We’ve recently begun a full update of the email addresses on our e-mail notification list.  However, we’ve run into a tiny technical glitch.  While some of you have sent us e-mail asking to be on our list, and some of you have registered on-line and asked to be on the list, the vast majority of people signed up using our “Capclave Wants You” form.  The technical glitch is that the form doesn’t actually ask if you want us to add your email address to our list.

As a fervant “opt-in” person, I can not in good conscious use the email address you provided for registration purposes, unless you actually want me to.

Therefore, I’m asking all of you who read this blog, and who would like to be on our e-mail notification list, to send me an email at the webmaster account at the  capclave.org domain.

Thanks,

Paul Haggerty/Webmaster
